yeah, i'd love to know more about the CNW meeting. Could definitely use some monthly meetings to help with the old inspiration. Whats the story with that? Thanks for the invite!

The best way to know more about CNW is to be there. Or at least to visit the website (www.cartoonists.net) and check it out. Since there is just so much to tell I will sum up.

Cartoonists Northwest is an association of professional and amateur cartoonists, animators, & illustrators based in Seattle, WA. We are very very proud to say that we have many of the top names in these fields on our membership roster and are among the best organizations of our kind in the Pacific Northwest and around the world.

Boil that down and it means 25 great years of truly talented people from all walks of the cartooning industry coming together to write, draw, network, and be pals. We meet on the third saturday of every month (that means this weekend) at 5pm at the School of Visual Concepts in downtown Seattle. Just in the shadow of the Space Needle. We hang out for about two hours or so, learn a lot, and have a bunch of fun. This weekend our newest president (just won the election against me last month) will be teaching us all how to give our best presence at conventions in prep for Emerald City ComiCon in April.

That's the short end of it. I'm really happy to meet more artists from the area and really really encourage you to come to the school this weekend and check it out. I'm sure you'll find it worth while. If not this weekend there will be another meeting next month, the website is always up and active, and now you have me to harass about it all. So don't be a stranger!

Talk to you soooooooooooooooooon!!!!!!!!
